    A value purchase when it is on sale which is quite regular, It is not as convenient as a USB memory stick but it is cheaper than a USB memory stick of similar storage capacity. Prices are dropping over time with increasing capacities.

    I love the device it helped free up space on my Samsung20. It was getting very full of pictures and videos. This will allow me to take more pictures and videos without having to worry that all my storage is being used up.

    Great external for PS5 even though not being able to cold store PS5 games on it although it might come in an update at some point. Loads PS4 games just as quick as the PS5's internal SSD. After formatting this drive has about 910gb of space for use on the PS5

    Before this product, I used external HD storage for backup and transfer for video projects. But because the SSD is so fast and the transfer rates are great, I can actually edit video directly off the HD, which is such a great time-saver. Love this drive and will probably be getting more soon.

    This is an excellent portable SSD for backing up your computer files or carrying personal files around with you. It is very fast at transferring files and built solid. Nice small size to carry around. Has USB A to C cable and USB C to C cable included. I have bought 3 of these so far.

    Love this External SSD. I use it for my Xbox Series X for all my Xbox 1/360 games and the internal drive is only for Xbox SX games. Plugged it in the back, xbox saw it instantly, format and renamed to Samsung external and installed y games to it. 0 issues

    I bought this hard drive in that small window of time in which the Samsung software was not Compatible with macOS Catalina. It can be used simply as a storage device but check before you buy to see if the disk software is compatible with your current operating system

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Easy to carry and most importantly, it can store 1 TB worth of data for both Win and Mac. The warranty should have been at par with other similar lines of products, at least 4 years, for the price we are paying.
